DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from Lockhart's Memoirs of the Life of Sir Walter Scott, Vol. 1 of 5: With Copious Annotations Lockhart's Memoirs of the Life of Sir Walter Scott, Bart., which divides with Boswell's Life of Johnson the honor of leading all lives of English men of letters, was first published in seven volumes in 1887-1838. A second edition, with some corrections, some slight revisions, and a few additions, mostly in the form of notes, was published in 1839, and this has remained ever since the standard edition. Later, in 1848, Lockhart prepared, at the request of the publishers of that work, a condensation of his magnum opus, and took that occasion to add a few facts bearing upon the Life which had occurred since the original publication, and a few comments which it would not have been in good taste to make in the first instance. Throughout his original work, Lockhart, with all his openness of speech, yet refrained from certain personal references, the subjects of which were too recent for remark, and he concealed many names under the disguise of initials. Since the edition of 1839 there have been many issues of this great work on both sides of the Atlantic. As late as 1861, Messrs. Ticknor and Fields, predecessors of the present publishers of the work, issued an edition in nine volumes, and took occasion to insert some material from Lockhart's abridgment. They prefaced the edition, which they dedicated to Nathaniel Hawthorne, with a brief sketch of Lockhart. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from Memoirs of Sir Walter Scott, Vol. 5 of 5 In dismissing the last volume of this work, I have to apologize for some mistakes, which shall be corrected in the text, should it reach a second edition. I notice such as have been pointed out to me, but I am afraid very many more might be detected on a careful revision, and I shall be thankful for any suggestions on this head. I find, from the evidence of documents kindly forwarded to me by my friend, Dr. Macfarlane, Principal of the University of Glasgow, that the cause of the minister, M'Naught, in which Sir Walter Scott made his first appearance at the bar of the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland, was heard in May 1793, not 1795. It appears, that another person alluded to in connexion with his early practice as a barrister, killed accidentally in July, 1795, was not door-keeper to the Faculty of Advocates, but bar-keeper to the Court of Session. These situations are not, it seems, held by individuals of exactly the same rank in society; and a relation of the bar-keeper has favoured me with a conspectus of his pedigree; which, however, I do not think it necessary to insert here. I have received a letter from Kelso, complaining sharply of an extract from Sir Walters MSS., in which (vol. i.p. 94)a lady, known to him in his youth, is described as having been seen by him afterwards in the situation of governess to a manufacturers children in Paisley. For this mistake, if it was one, I cannot account. I have been informed of my error in stating (vol. ii. p.27) that Francis, the eighth Lord Napier, had been a lord of the bed-chamber. I had confounded him, it seems, with the late Earl of Morton, who succeeded him as Commissioner to the General Assembly.

He who attempts a subject of distinguished popularity, has not the privilege of awakening the enthusiasm of his audience; on the contrary, it is already awakened, and glows, it may be, more ardently than that of the author himself.
